• anghenion gofal corfforol
• anghenion gofal emosiynol
• anghenion gofal deallusol

Mae'n bwysig sicrhau bod pob un o'r anghenion hyn yn cael eu cefnogi'n gyfartal drwy gynnig gofal mewn dull holistaidd. Mae hyn yn sicrhau bod llesiant meddyliol a chorfforol yr unigolyn yn cael eu hystyried wrth ddod i benderfyniadau am ei ofal.

Supporting physical development is an important aspect of childcare through the provision of safe surroundings and time for play and exploration along with a healthy diet.

Vulnerable adults can have a wide range of physical needs, from those who want to be involved in regular exercise, to those with physical disabilities that require specific care.

Nursing care can be given to individuals with complex medical needs that affect their physical health whilst individuals with mental health problems may be encouraged to get more physical exercise in order to improve their mood.

Elderly individuals may be encouraged to help with tasks such as shopping in order to keep them mobile.

It is important to assess the individual’s needs and provide a care package that suits their physical abilities and their goals.

All carers should ensure that the individual’s emotional needs are considered when making any decisions based on their care.

Individual’s needing medical care may be frightened or confused about their treatment, taking time to listen to their concerns is vital. Ensuring that they feel they have the support they need when making decisions about their care is important including having an individual speak for them if they feel unable to do so.

Older adults who are no longer able to carry out day-to-day tasks without help and support can feel frustrated at the loss of their independence. If they are being cared for at home, then their care package will take into account their needs including the emotional support that they will require to adjust to this new way of living. They may also feel isolated if they are alone at home for long periods. Their carer could suggest that the individual joins some clubs or takes parts in events in order to gain a new social circle.

Vulnerable adults requiring residential care may feel that they have lost their freedom, so their carers need to ensure that they are included in all discussions about their care and that their interests and needs are taken into account before any decisions are made.

Dylai pob gofalwr sicrhau bod anghenion emosiynol yn cael eu hystyried wrth ddod i benderfyniadau am eu gofal.

Gall unigolion y mae arnyn nhw angen gofal meddygol fod yn ofnus neu'n ddryslyd am eu triniaeth, ac mae cymryd amser i wrando ar eu pryderon yn hanfodol. Mae sicrhau eu bod yn teimlo bod ganddyn nhw’r cymorth sydd ei angen arnyn nhw wrth ddod i benderfyniadau am eu gofal yn bwysig, gan gynnwys cael unigolyn i siarad ar eu rhan os nad ydyn nhw'n teimlo eu bod yn gallu gwneud hynny.

Mae oedolion hŷn nad ydyn nhw'n gallu gwneud tasgau bob dydd bellach heb help a chymorth, yn gallu teimlo'n rhwystredig wrth golli eu hannibyniaeth. Os ydyn nhw'n derbyn gofal yn y cartref, yna bydd eu pecyn gofal yn ystyried eu hanghenion gan gynnwys y cymorth emosiynol fydd ei angen arnyn nhw i addasu i'r ffordd newydd hon o fyw. Efallai byddan nhw'n teimlo'n ynysig os ydyn nhw adref ar eu pen eu hunain am gyfnodau hir. Gallai'r gofalwr awgrymu bod yr unigolyn yn ymuno â rhai clybiau neu'n cymryd rhan mewn digwyddiadau er mwyn ymuno â chylch cymdeithasol newydd.

Gall oedolion agored i niwed sydd arnyn nhw angen gofal preswyl deimlo eu bod wedi colli eu rhyddid, felly mae angen i'w gofalwyr sicrhau eu bod yn cael eu cynnwys yn yr holl drafodaethau am eu gofal a bod eu lles a'u hanghenion yn cael eu hystyried cyn dod i unrhyw benderfyniadau.

Vulnerable individuals should be supported to take responsibility for their own health, development and well-being.

They may find it difficult to access the wealth of information available to make informed choices about their own life, but care workers can ensure that they are given the appropriate information to help them make the right decision for them.

Individuals in care should also be supported in accessing education, training and employment, so that they can live a full life.

Dylid rhoi cymorth i unigolion agored i niwed gymryd cyfrifoldeb am eu hiechyd, datblygiad a'i llesiant eu hunain.

Efallai y byddan nhw'n ei chael yn anodd dod o hyd i'r cyfoeth o wybodaeth sydd ar gael i wneud dewisiadau gwybodus am eu bywyd eu hunain, ond gall gweithwyr gofal sicrhau eu bod yn cael y wybodaeth briodol i'w helpu i wneud y penderfyniad cywir iddyn nhw.

Hefyd, dylid rhoi cymorth i unigolion mewn gofal i gael mynediad at addysg, hyfforddiant a chyflogaeth, er mwyn iddyn nhw fyw bywyd llawn.

Spirituality crosses all faiths and cultures – It is a way of connecting with ourselves and with the world around us.

Whilst care providers need to be mindful and respectful of an individual’s background and their beliefs, they can also help them make sense of the world around them and develop empathy for another’s views and beliefs.

All individuals can be supported with the following:

• accepting themselves and valuing their individuality
• caring for others around them and understanding difference
• awe and wonder for the world around them
• reflecting on their actions and thoughts
• discussing death and dying.

Mae ysbrydolrwydd yn croesi pob ffydd a diwylliant – Mae'n ffordd o gysylltu gyda'n gilydd a’r byd o'n cwmpas.

Er bod angen i ddarparwyr gofal fod yn ymwybodol o gefndir unigolyn a'i gredoau a pharchu’r rhain, gallan nhw hefyd ei helpu i ddeall y byd o'i gwmpas a datblygu empathi tuag at safbwyntiau a chredoau eraill.

Gellir rhoi cymorth i bob unigolyn â'r canlynol:

• derbyn ei hun a gwerthfawrogi ei unigoliaeth
• gofalu am eraill o'i gwmpas a deall gwahaniaeth
• rhyfeddu a synnu at y byd o'i gwmpas
• myfyrio ar ei weithredoedd a'i feddyliau
• trafod marwolaeth a marw.

All sectors involved in the care of vulnerable adults have a duty to keep them safe.

All local authorities are required to have local policies and procedures for the Protection of Vulnerable Adults (POVA). The regional POVA policies require local authorities, health services, the police and the Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales (CSSIW) to work in partnership to protect vulnerable adults from significant harm and serious exploitation.

In NHS Wales, each Local Health Board and Trust has dedicated staff to coordinate and work collaboratively with partner agencies.

Mae gan bob sector sy'n gysylltiedig â gofalu am oedolion agored i niwed ddyletswydd i'w cadw'n ddiogel.

Mae'n ofynnol i bob awdurdod lleol gael polisïau a gweithdrefnau lleol ar gyfer Amddiffyn Oedolion Agored i Niwed (POVA: Protection of Vulnerable Adults). Mae'r polisïau Amddiffyn Oedolion Agored i Niwed rhanbarthol yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i awdurdodau lleol, gwasanaethau iechyd, yr heddlu ac Arolygiaeth Gofal a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol Cymru (AGGCC) weithio mewn partneriaeth i amddiffyn oedolion agored i niwed rhag niwed sylweddol a chamfanteisio difrifol.

Yn GIG Cymru, mae gan bob Bwrdd Iechyd ac Ymddiriedolaeth Lleol staff dynodedig i gydlynu a chydweithio gydag asiantaethau sy'n bartneriaid.
